Dire Wolf Digital and HBO has announced a new board game and it sounds pretty cool. The Game of Thrones: Oathbreaker board game is described as being a social deduction game of ambition and deceit for 5-8 players.
One player claims the Iron Throne while the others play as any of 12 Lords and Ladies of the great houses of Westeros, scheming for the King’s favor, for power, or to bring a dynasty to its knees.
Loyalists square off against traitorous conspirators in a game where secret agendas intertwine, and only the wise can tell allies from enemies.
Here are the details:
